The historic Summit Ave is one of the country's most renowned architectural marvels in the entire United States and has been featured in countless publications, magazines and television shows over the years. Get used to an upbeat and friendly environment filled with treed streets, immaculate yards boasting impeccably pride-of-ownership, walkers, runners and bikers galore. You'll even find your very own front yard as the front-row seats to many annual marathons, races and neighborhood traditions such as Grand Ole Day and art festivals. Nestled just across the street and in view from your living room is Macalster College and less than one mile west down Summit Ave is St. Thomas University. Other nearby colleges are Concordia, St. Kates, Hamline and others as well. Want to walk to dinner? Want to walk to get ice cream on these hot steamy nights? Want to walk to see a movie? Want to walk to Whole Foods, the new French Meadow Cafe, Buffalo Wild Wings, Wells Fargo, Bars, Restaurants and more? Well, it is all literally right across your street just one block away on Summit's marvelous sister-street of Grand Ave. We've LOVED LOVED LOVED being able to pick & choose from many different varities and types of foods on any given night and it's been marvelous. It's less than 1 quick mile to get onto Interstate 94 where you're just a few miles from the downtowns of St. Paul and Minneapolis. The new light rail is a convenient transit option for you too which also is just one mile north on University. Our home has great curb-appeal from the street and is situated on an oversized .37 acre treed lot with superb privacy. One of only three buildings on the entire block, it's sprawling yard and oversized 2 car detached garage give you endless room enjoy a huge backyard and space without jeapordizing your privacy. The interior of the home has had an endless list of restoration done to it and the entire main level trim & millwork is still its original (yet improved with a fresh coat) dark stain color which contrasts beautifully against the original, refinished oak hardwood floors. The home has been freshly painted on all levels and is ready for your personal touches of furniture, rugs and decor to make it feel your very own. Huge covered, enclosed 2 season porch on the entire east side of the home is lined with antique windows and it is the perfect room to start your day over a coffee while you listen to the birds and the squirrels rustle about in your trees....
